Description
Experimental data - nematode data from microcosms dosed with three levels of contaminants (Cu, Zn, Cd,Pb) plus controls and initial field samples. more

A microcosm experiment was carried out to determine the effect of four heavy metals on offshore meiobenthic nematode communities. Both field and experimental data are available.
Lineage
Prior to publication data undergo quality control checked which are described in https://github.com/EMODnet/EMODnetBiocheck?tab=readme-ov-file#understanding-the-output
